Cardiff - Mercurial flyhalf Quade Cooper will miss Australia's one-off Test against Wales at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium on Saturday.
Cooper had been named as one of eight replacements in coach Michael Cheika's first international in charge after overseeing last week's 40-36 victory over the Barbarians.
The Reds playmaker, who suffered a shoulder injury in May and lost his place to Bernard Foley, started the match against the BaaBaas, playing 53 minutes.
But he misses the cut as Cheika opts for a six-two forwards-backs split in what is expected to be a feisty battle up-front, the backs named being veteran scrumhalf Will Genia and the versatile Rob Horne.
